[Verse 1]
When you come from a solid foundation
It freaks you out when the ground starts shaking
And everything around you is breaking
Mum was going crazy together to keep it
Dad's two lives, he was keeping it a secret
When we found out, we couldn't believe it
[Chorus]
We're all walking on quicksand
When we're busy making our plans
God laughs
Yes, he does
We're all walking on quicksand, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When we think that we understand
God laughs
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
I've been a sound board, trying to be neutral
Born in the middle, it's hard to be useful
It's been hell, if I had to be truthful, oh
When people grow apart, people can change but
It's leaves a lot of mess that someone's gotta clean up
It happened here to the family that I love, oh
[Chorus]
We're all walking on quicksand, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When we're busy making our plans
God laughs
Yes, he does
We're all walking on quicksand, yeah, yeah, yeah
When we think that we understand
God laughs, God laughs
We're all walking on quicksand, ooh, oh
When we're busy making our plans
God laughs (God laughs), God laughs
We're all walking on quicksand (Ooh, mm, yeah)
When we think that we understand
God laughs
[Bridge]
And we're so stupid if we think that we control
All the dark matter at the centre of this black hole
It's gonna put lives under
If we don't let go
[Chorus]
We're all walking on quicksand, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When we're busy making our plans
God laughs (God laughs)
We're all walking on quicksand (Everybody's walking on quicksand, ooh)
When we think that we understand
God laughs (God laughs)
So we're all walking on quicksand (Everybody's walking on), oh-ooh
When we're busy making our plans
God laughs (He does, he does, he does)
We're all walking on quicksand (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
When we think that we understand
God laughs
We're all walking on quicksand (Ooh)
When we're busy making our plans
God laughs
We're all walking on quicksand (Ooh)
When we think that we understand
God laughs
